Busy week, especially in regards to Summer.

That Gate key visual looks as generic as it gets and by A-1 no less, ugh, director is like... he directed Love Live and now he's doing this, so random.
I didn't have many expectations but whatever I had it's all gonne now, still gonna check it out.

Jitsu wa Watashi wa isn't looking that great either but probably watch it.

Gonna keep an eye out for Laplace, Lerche is kinda random but the staff is solid, for the most part, need some form of synopsis or anything really though.

Not much else, excited for Overlord, Rokka no Yuusha, Chaos Dragon, Fate/kaleid, Non Non, Gangsta, and others, Summer is looking great too.

Hopefully more news on Chain Chronicle soon.

It's still a few more months to go and Spring is pretty stacked but Summer looks like it has potential with titles like:

Akagami no Shirayuki-hime
Gatchaman Crowds Insight
Rokka no Yuusha

The OPM preview also looks fabulous!

After watching the PVs those I can't wait to see :

Gate (Junichi-sama *_*) / Akagami (seems like another Akatsuki no Yona tho) / Gangsta ( I waited for this adaptation) /GITS (always good and so will this new one be I'm sure) / Non Non Biyori / Game of Laplace / Rokka no Yuusha / One Punch Man.

The one which really disappointed me 'cause it looks really cheap so I won't watch it :

Overlord.

I just want overlord. And Owari no Seraph.
Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg... and my arm... even my fingers. The body I've lost... the comrades I've lost... won't stop hurting... It's like they're all still there. You feel it, too, don't you? I'm gonna make them give back our past."

Hmmm lets see.

Gate: The seiyuu list is pretty good. It's being done by A-1, so you either love it or hate it already. I enjoy almost everything A-1 puts out that I happen to watch, so I have high expectations.

Also, Kishida Kyoudan & the Akeboshi Rockets?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? FUCK YES. Goddamn I love them. Cannot wait to hear this OP.

Jitsu wa Watashi wa: Beyond fucking pumped for this. So goddamn hilarious. Been waiting for an anime for so long.

The art looks pretty damn good. It looks like they polished it enough to make it accessible for a lot more people, but they didn't stray so far away that it looks entirely different. The colors look awesome too.

The studio and seiyuu list have me nervous. I've never watched a single goddamn thing by TMS, so I have no idea what to expect. Rolling through their page, they have quite a few VERY low scores.

And the seiyuus are all incredibly talented and all people who I enjoy, but as of now I really cant picture their voices with those characters. So I'm a bit nervous about that.

Overlord: I know nothing about it, but it looks cool. Saw the LN art on Haruhichan and it looked amazing. Madhouse's art looks different, but I still like it.

And it's being done by Madhouse. Which means 85-90% chance we get a pretty faithful adaptation. 99% chance it does well and we never see a sequel.

Rokka no Yuusha: Not sure. I thought the art in the preview looked fucking awesome. It has a bunny girl too.

Passione doesn't really have anything under their belt besides Rail Wars...which they got a lot of flack for. Buuuut...I love fanservice so I really enjoyed Rail Wars, plus the art was really damn good. It's hard to deny that.

Though, RnY has any uncensored ecchi, I'll be a bit worried. Especially after the one Rail Wars episode that was actually MORE uncensored on TV, and then for some fucking retarded reason not only did Passione keep it censored in the BD, but they made the censors worse.

Owari no Seraph: My hype for this show is literally off the charts...and it has been since it was announced. Literally everything I wished for with this show has happened so far
- 2 cour
- great studio
- Sawano OST
- godly fucking sieyuu cast. I can picture every seiyuu voicing the characters perfectly. Every voice fits so well.

And the sieyuu cast keeps getting better. I can definitely see Hibiku voicing Ashuramaru. Perfect voice: low enough to sound like a monotone demon, but just high enough to suit a demon loli.

The Ghost in the Shell pv was pretty cool despite it being basically 2 minutes recap and about 30 seconds of "new" material

Also RIP Rokka no Yuusha. Studio is blegh and the director a mixed bag. Only Spice and Wolf stands out. Rest of his credits are complete shit.

The only thing I hope is that they don't censor the one sided massacre, that the manga showed, as I am looking forward to a "justified slaughter." Unlike Code Geass, Kakumeiki Valvrave, or Cross Ange, as opposed to seeing a genocide of poor innocent people, I wish to see a one sided overkill scene that contains complete JUSTICE!

I will enjoy seeing the next "Log Horizon" anime, these sort of genres are quite popular.
